Convicted sex offender appeared to be recommending questions to ask Trump lawyer
A censure is being sought for a Democrat member of Congress who was caught taking directions from, and reporting to, the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a congressional hearing with a lawyer for President Donald Trump.
According to a report from the Blaze, it is House Freedom Caucus member Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., who has filed a motion to censure Delegate Stacey Plaskett, a non-voting representative for the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Emails released recently from Epstein’s file confirmed she was “colluding” with Epstein during the hearing, the report said.
It was during a 2019 hearing with Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, when Plaskett and Epstein exchanged numerous text messages, with Epstein complimenting Plaskett on her appearance, her questions and more. And he directed some of her questions by providing insider information.
The censure would formally condemn Plaskett and strip her of her committee assignments, the report said.
